The Georgia Fee Artist | Writer Residency in Paris, which was established in memory of ArtSlant's Founder, offers select artists and writers the opportunity to live and create work in Paris and to increase exposure of their work to an international audience. The Residency is open to visual artists of all mediums, art writers and critics, 24 years or older; recipients are chosen after a rigorous application and interview process.

Each artist- or writer-in-residence maintains a blog where they can post works in progress, texts, and inspirations, giving us a glimpse of their process and their experiences in Paris.

ArtSlant Prize as well as extra short contests we run throughout the year to get your work seen at some of the biggest venues
in the art world.
